Hi. Sorry for long post. I'm wondering if anyone could help please. I'm 34 weeks pregnant and I've been really suffering with indigestion/acid reflux. I have been given gaviscon advance to take 4 times a day as well as ranitidine twice a day. It started off being 3 times a day but after a week or so this was brought down to twice a day. Ive been back to the doctors today and they have given me omeprazole to try. Im scared of trying it due to side effects. I haven't had any on ranitidine and I'm terrified of being poorly with stomach issues outside my house! The pain is so bad that I'm scared to eat anything. When I was last in hospital with it, they said it was because I'm not eating and drinking enough so trying to have a bit more during day but I'm now stuck about what to actually eat! I'm having very plain food.. teatime it's between pork, gammon and sausages. Pretty boring. I have a sweet tooth and have given up chocolate as believe that is pretty bad for acid reflux. Is there anything that you can recommend instead of this.. in terms of snacks and something sweet? I'm getting really miserable about it all as the food i am eating is so bland! Please can anyone help?! Thank you x
